Verse And Worse

Random Wit, Errant Rhyme. Not A Literary Crime

My next-door-neighbour William Carey
Used to train a dromedary
While on his desk, in carved enamel
He treasured a statue of a camel

  2. I always thought that God created camels and warthogs to make children laugh...the camel because they spit and the worthog because they're so ugly they're cute...and only a mother could love either face.
    loved the poem...

  4. Together once
    They stepped in caramel
    They never moved, never fell
    So it goes with a camel and caramel.

  5. Our friend would go a distance for
    Not just another mammal
    He'd walk across the room for some
    But a mile for a camel

  7. Did you every feed a live camel?
    You must watch his tooth enamel.
    I tried it once and just for spite
    the camel did give me a bite.
